[edit] Dialogue

Approaching Oggy before giving him Taro Leaves:

Oggy: "Hello ladies. How you doin'?"

Florggi: "Oh Oggy, not again. How many times do I have to tell you? I'm not interested!"

Oggy: "Who said I was even talking to you? I was directing my query at this fine young lady with you. Hey there darlin'. How YOU doin'?"

Jezza: "*giggle*"

Florggi: "Jezza, please. This scrawny little ooze ball isn't worth a second glance. Beat it, Oggy. Come on, let's go."

Jezza: "Sorry. I have to go now. Nice meeting you, Oggy."

Oggy: "Ladies, ladies, please. Why the cold shoulder? The Oggmeister's boiling over with a potful o' love ready to thaw out these frigid hearts."

Florggi: "Because you're weird, smelly, and have teeny-tiny ears. That's why. Jezza, let's go!"

[edit] Notes

• Interactive objects
  • Taro Plant
• These quests influences the spawns in the area:
  • A Little Help
  • The Cipher of Melandru
  • The Justiciar's End
  • Turning the Page
• Vanquisher runs of this area without active quests yielded roughly 227 foes or so. Discounting quest influences, it has been reported to range from 220 to 234.
  • When engaging dinosaurs in hard mode (except Raptors), if you forget to spread out, their area damage will easily kill bunched up heroes and henchmen. Ceratadons particularly must be avoided at melee range due to their deadly spells.

Anomaly.

The southern edge of the map does not line up with the character perspectives along the coast. For this reason, some of the explorable footage in those areas does not clear when explored.

[edit] Trivia

• "How you doin'?" is the pick-up line of Joey Tribbiani, a fictional character of the television series Friends.
• The bridge in the northwest corner of Alcazia, next to Magus Stones portal, and the one in the northeast corner, near Arbor Bay, each contain a white (untextured) male warrior model in Luxon armor. These may be graphics relics, similar to "The Naked Man" of Gunnar's Hold and Bukdek Byway.
